Thread: What is your single most embarrassing moment ever? Does it beat this?

The last wedding I was at was one between my cousin Shona and her fiance Andy. My mum is a minister and she had been asked to take the wedding. Now this was a family wedding so I pretty much knew half the people there but crucially I didnt know them very well. Also, for those who dont know, my name is Sandy. This is the information you need for this story.

The ceremony went fine and at the reception we all sat down. The bride and groom, their respective parents and my mum (minister) were all at the head table. The MC called silence and said that we would have a blessing, then food, then speeches.

Cue my mother. A silent room. Eyes closed and heads bowed.

Some of you can probably already see the car crash coming.

My mum proceeded to give thanks for the marriage between 'Shona and Sandy.... um... Andy'

I quietly died. I prayed that the hall would open up and swallow me. I was CRINGING with embarrassment.

OMGOMGOMG

So tell me lads and lasses... have you ever been more embarrassed than that?

Andy, I mean, Sandy ;-) If this is the most embarrassing thing that has happened to you, consider yourself extremely lucky.

Al raz.

Go on Al, what has happened to you that was really emarassing? Something more embarassing than your mother marrying you to your cousin in front of all your relatives....

The day before my wedding, my entire non-drinking, non-smoking Southern Baptist family came down to New Orleans to be present for the wedding. My cousin got me so drunk and high that when I went to see the family, I passed out in front of them, and went straight to the bathroom to vomit for the next 4 hours.

haha, my guess, since it was mostly family, is that everyone already knows that your mum thinks it high time you found a nice girl to get married

My mom still does similar to me sometimes, though never like that in public. I'm the oldest of my siblings by several years, yet my mom will start to call me by all my siblings' names. Once she even started to call me by the dog's name!

Most embarrassing? Hmm, not sure.

While at work one day, I got a hankerin' to rock out with some Dan Fogelberg...specifically, "Longer."

I put my headphones on, crank it up, and mellow out to Dan's soothing voice, strings, and gently plucked guitar.

About 2/3 of the way through the song, someone walks up, looks at me, and I see him say something. I can't hear him because I have my headphones on.

I take them off and immediately it hits me. My headphones weren't plugged in. Yeah, they were on my head, but I'd been BLARING "Longer" to the whole office for a couple minutes before anyone walked up and said "WTF?"

Needless to say, I got a lot of crap from my buddies at work for about a month after.

And I admit it. I'm a Dan fan. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

so, my parents were gone out to some friends and were usually out til atleast 12. so my girlfriend at the time (this was in hight school) were home doing things might make us blush now. so at 10pm we are buck naked on the couch under 2 blankets when my parents come home. she takes off in one blanket and i i grab the other and try to distract them from seeing her. so she gets to the front bathroom but her clothes are in the back bathroom and i am talking to my parents for 20 mins wearing only a blanket, and i know they knew what was going on. lickily my parents are pretty cool and always trusted me to do things the safe way but i could tell they were trying to make the conversation last longer just to keep me there. then there was the task of getting my g/f here clothes.

that one tops my list for sure. my dad still razes me about (though never infront of my current g/f obviously).

I think I got ya beat. One night after a bottle of southern comfort. I woke to my alarm clock for work. This is not necessarily so bad but where I woke was my parents living room floor. Butt ass naked.

Great idea for a thread! I can tell you a few but I'll limit them to one per post:

I was in one of the first classes to attend the fancy new Harry B. Flood Junior High School: Flood Middle School I was fairly familiar with one of the three circular "wings" and typically used the boys lavatory between second and third period. One day I had to pee between fourth and fifth period and went into the boys room in another wing. I was immediately confused by the different layout of the lavatory. Not only did this boys room have no urinals, there was an odd looking box mounted to the wall that said, "Sanitary Napkins 25 cents". I had no idea what it was or why it was there. I was fiddling with the strange vending machine when Diane Nicita walked into the tiled room, "Bradley, what the hell are you doing?" She shouted.
"What are you doing in here?" I replied.
"This is the girls room you idiot" and suddenly all my questions were answered except, why are the boys and girls room reversed in the English wing and the Science wing?

You know, the story of how I was in the girl's room playing with the "rag box" made it completely around the school before I got to my next class.
